I personally am excited to go to this game. Montreal comes to town once a year, so this will be my only chance to see them live. Its also nice that this is a pretty much once in a lifetime chance (since i lived too far for the edm vs mtl game) to see an outdoor game with a team i actually cheer for (well the only team i cheer for lol). Also seeing how its outdoor, ive saved over half of what ive spent the last two years to see them in the Saddledome (cost me $1000 two years in a row for my father and I) I hope to see a lot of Hab fans at this game like i do every other time. Go Habs Go

Kovy is very tempting cuz you just don’t know with this guy. It’s all mental with this guy and if that’s the case than it’s worth a shot. I think he might just get that passion back. Just for fun my lines wud be like this:

Kovy-Pleks-Cammy

Gionta-Gomez-Patch

Pouliot-Desharnais-AK46

Moen-Halpern-Darche

Thanks for the update on ticket info, but again I am not interested paying the fee to sit out and (potentially) freeze. I am looking forward to the game, but would much rather enjoy it from a warm room. Knowing what a bottle-neck traffic mess it can be near McMahon, I’m staying away!

Hey Marvin, they released more tickets on ticketmaster. Thats how i scored mine…. im in the section i want (montreal attack end for 2 periods), not a bad row, and i payed less then $500 for 2 tickets. Thought id mention it

Former Mtl’er who now lives in Calgary, and I have ZERO interest in seeing the game in person. The ticket prices are outrageous, and basically those who have Flames season tickets or Stampeders season tickets get first choice. Just a money-grab, as far as I’m concerned. Having said that, I have entered a local draw to win tickets – I just don’t have the desire to pay for the tickets. I’ll be more than happy to sit in the comfort of my warm living room and cheer on the Habs.

And you don’t remember everytime this guy’s name was announced the roof came off the building. Yes the fans hated him, but they loved him too. For a cheap price he would work well again here, but again like I said in the above post, instead of shooting down every potential idea fellow posters have on here, give us some of your vast knowledge or input as to what PG could or should do….

#1 he can be had for cheap.
#2 the fans would love it, he would love it, it would rejuvenate him for the stretch drive going forward to the playoffs.
#3 his cap hit is manageable.
#4 since MAB is on the bolts, he could help out the PP
#5 Gio/Gomer/Patch….AK27/Pleks/Cammy…Pouliot/DD/AK46
Darche/Halpern/Moen
#6 he would only be a rental for the remainder of the season…..he would not be back the next year as he is a ufa following the season.

Gotta be able to make deals where you don’t need to give up a lot for …..hence these two deals. Also, a 25 game stint would do Kovy good. This is the time of year he usually picks his game up…..and in the playoffs is where his best hockey is/was played as a member of the habs. The fans would love it, he would love it and it would only be till the end of season. What deals do you think PG can do? The senators are at a disadvantage when it comes to asking a lot for any of their players, based on the teams standing/performance to date…..so PG could have these two players at a very good price tag. I don’t want any player as a rental that is going to mortgage the future. So since we agree on pretty much everything on here, go ahead and armchair for me and see what you bring to the table.

Hey I am in the States I want TWO apologies!… and congrats to James Starks, from here in Niagara Falls USA and his Green Bay Packers. And sorry to Mr. Boone if you’re reading. Roethlisberger doesn’t even deserve to walk the streets anymore, let alone more “Super Bowl glory” anyway.

Ray Emery to the ducks……I don’t think he makes it through waivers to get to them. For some reason I would love him on the habs if we could sign him in the summer. I think he would put the fears of Auld in so many here on HIO to rest, as razor is a way better tender. I do think it would create a controversy heading into next year, but deal him around Christmas time and see what we get back.
